I really need to embrace this word, finishing.
Several years ago I saw a cute little saying "finishing is over rated", which seemed to give me ample permission to start as many projects as I could, but now I am feeling stress ever time I walk into the sewing room and losing control of the started projects as well as the ones that I would like to start.
This is something that I need to get under control this coming year, and there is no time to start like the present. I'm really excited about the number of almost finished items in my bead box, and knowing how portable it can be, I can learn to take it with me when I travel if I like. If I learn to pick just one project at a time and get each one completed without breaks, I think that I will do much better at knocking things off the list.
I don't mind having a project in each area, because my body allows me only so much time at each task before it starts to rebel, and to this end I can allow my need to have several projects going at one time, still sticking to my resolution to finish one project all of the way through. Using up fabric and yarn that I have in ways that generate income, I need to be mindful of the projects that I take on through the coming year, making sure that each one will fit well into my projection.
Not only stepping outside my comfort zone of the faster the better, but raising the bar on fine sewing, completion of each project, detail work and more difficult patterns. I can't wait now to start the new year right, and I know that I'm going to enjoy looking back on this post a year from now, marking my progress into the world that I entered so many many years ago
